Watching on 365. Tip. Put a bet on and the interactive match pic shows possession, field position and tackle count. They're offering me cash back of more than I put on now obviously. 12+ has reduced to 6+

FT Oldham 12 Dons 24
Dons second half tries: Watson Boas, Callum Ogden, Sam Doherty
Conversions: Matty Beharrell 3

Totally unexpected ... so fair play to Donny.

Well done , lets hope it is an omen for next week .

Very pleased. Sounds like a smart performance. Disagree that this is like the 2 Workington games last year. Totally different circumstances

Nice little earner too btw. Good odds

Other 1895 cup scores:

Dewsbury 44, Swinton 26
York 30, Newcastle 16
Batley 38, Rochdale 18
Leigh 62, Workington 12 (latest)

Wednesday fixtures:

Barrow v Bradford
Widnes v Fev
Halifax v Eagles

A very pleasing result. Hope for more of the same next week.

we've got the players good enough as beating Batley proved, that's whats so puzzling why its only once in a while
this has happened this season, we should be getting better results than we have been.

But credit to the lads today Well Done

Let's hope this result has given the lads some confidence.

Looking forward to the return match next week already.

Any win at Oldham is a well done. Couple of posts on their site suggests they offered little in attack but praised their defence. Not sure what to make of that, we may have stifled them and we were on top or they were keeping their powder dry for a weeks time. Any how well done to the lads today and I really hope we can make it a double next Sunday.

O/T big praise for Fax today. It was a decent match was that.

Here's a post from their site ...

"Doncaster away next week!!!!!!

With a fresh full team out we will put 50 up them."

Pin it up in the Dons changing room.

I hope that bloke sets the odds for Bet365

Attendance 283 ...

The next round of the cup will be on week commencing 24th June. At the moment we are home (at Fev) to Newcastle on Sunday 23rd and away at Coventry on Saturday 29th.

So looks like 3 games in 6 days

Just been told the Newcastle home game (at Fev) may now be rearranged so that should be better. Might also mean we get to play them at the Keepmoat instead of Post office Road too if played on a later date

The draw for the quarter finals is on Friday 7th June.

They're really playing on the "fact" that we were at full strength. Really not sure that's true.

Apologies if I’m being thick.

Will the next round be scheduled for when the Keepmoat is unavailable, assuming we get a home draw?

Cheers.

Wasn't the home game v Newcastle moved to Fev on the 28th of July ?

That rings a bell now, I just got the fixture dates off our website. Found a news story now saying it has indeed moved

I believe that is probably true yes

Highlights from Oldham game. Lovely pass from Beryl for the third. And Boas' interception took some scoring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZGV3bRCVrA

I believe the 1895 cup dates are:

Quarter Finals: week commencing 24th June
Semi- Finals: week commencing 28th July
Final: 24th August at Wembley

That is correct
